Abstract

In a printing device including a paper feed drum 10 and a printing array 250, the movements of the drum and array are controlled by servo systems 62 and 264. Both servo loops include a common micro-processor. During a non-printing cycle of the machine, the processor selects certain operating parameters and stores these parameters as critical operating parameters for use in subsequent printing cycles.
